This is how redhat builds openldap; which are the bad libs? Are they the
lib crypt (--enable-crypt); what should I use instead? Michele Masè
Not crypt. crypto. as in using NSS instead of OpenSSL.

From experience, I recommend using ready-made RPMs (or building from SRPMs) rather than building from source. This way you can upgrade at will and fully control your system in a way compatible with RHEL/CentOS package practices.
Of those I have worked with, I would propose you try using Symas Silver (excluding syncrepl providers - if you cannot afford paid support - otherwise check gold), or full-featured LTB project's RPMs (free, with on-line issue system). We use the latter.
Buchan's RPMs are fine too, but availability is sometimes limited and updates slower. There are surely other RPMs and/or SRPMs around, but the above are - IMHO - a point of reference for CentOS/RHEL.
Discussion on how to use LTB src.rpm and openldap tar.gz source to build Openldap RPMs is here: http://tools.ltb-project.org/issues/394

Tx again 4 the support. The links are Good, it's a good start point. (I've built tons of packages from early 1999, I don't have any time to follow directly the building/testing stage of ldap cause of lack of time, I'll ask my boss to find somebody else that could do it) Michele Masè

No need to build. Just download the latest RPMs and install, e.g. here (for LTB): http://ltb-project.org/wiki/download#openldap !!
Building is only needed in special cases (when testing or when in need to deploy particular patches).
